Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the third story involving Inspector Morimoto and his assistant, Officer Suzuki. The ancient tradition of pottery making in the Bizen region is at the heart of their new case, and they quickly become immersed in the feud of a proud and famous family of potters-a family that has suddenly shrunk in size thanks to the work of a lethal poison. The whole of Japan is shocked when the gruesome details become known, and the Chief of Police is acutely aware that the Police Department's reputation hangs in the balance every time he fields questions on live television during his daily press conferences. Even though they are forced to work in the national limelight, Morimoto and Suzuki calmly rely on their unparalleled skills of deductive reasoning as they sort through the clues. Mr. Bando, one of Okayama's most prominent lawyers, has an extraordinary tale to tell them, and the cherry blossoms around the temples provide spectacular viewing when they visit Kyoto. As they grapple with the intriguing puzzles that they uncover, Morimoto and Suzuki realize that the essence of the case is the interaction between trust and mistrust, and one man's dream for the future of Bizen pottery.

Book excerpt: The deductive powers of Inspector Morimoto and Officer Suzuki are pressed to the limit by the intriguing events that they encounter in their fourth case. A young factory worker is placed on trial for a series of cash machine robberies, and Sergeant Yamada is the first witness called by the Public Prosecutor as he quickly builds a compelling case under the austere gaze of Judge Noda and the experienced legal eye of Mr. Bando. And when Professor Shirane from the Osaka Science University provides testimony based upon his expertise in probability theory, the odds appear to be heavily stacked against the defendant. Back at the Police Headquarters, the Chief hires a consulting company to assess the competency of his police force, and he also becomes concerned about the overzealous forensic work of Dr. Jimbo. Morimoto and Suzuki are intent upon delaying their interview with the consultants for as long as possible, and they begin to dig a little deeper into the defendant's golf games and his penchant for soaking in hot spring baths. And as the Chief lands in some hot water of his own, Morimoto and Suzuki hatch a carefully crafted plan that raises eyebrows throughout the legal establishment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second in the series of cases involving Inspector Morimoto and his assistant, Officer Suzuki. Using the methods of deductive reasoning that they employed so successfully in their earlier case Inspector Morimoto and the Two Umbrellas, Morimoto and Suzuki encounter some intriguing puzzles centered around an expensive piece of diamond jewelry. If the branch manager of the Metropolitan Trust Bank has been dabbling in burglary during his spare time, then an enormous scandal is surely about to break out. And how are the wealthy owner of the downtown kimono shop and the no-nonsense manager of the Okayama Central Hospital connected to the case? Morimoto and Suzuki know that the insurance company is monitoring them closely as they sort through the baffling events. And as usual, the Chief of Police is very concerned about the reputation of his Police Department, particularly since some of the people involved carry considerable influence with the City Council. Nevertheless, unperturbed by the fact that almost everybody becomes impatient with them for one reason or another, Morimoto and Suzuki carefully construct an astonishing theory--but with pressure mounting and time running out, will they be able to trick the suspects into giving themselves away?

Book excerpt: Inspector Morimoto and Detective Suzuki are presented with a new series of mysterious conundrums in their latest set of adventures that take them to the ancient burial mounds of the Kibi kingdom. An apparent robbery at the Okayama Avian Foundation is so uniquely distinctive that the Chief of Police is worried that the local criminals are trying to make fun of his beloved Police Department. And while the head groundskeeper appears absorbed in his task of rearing the elegant Japanese cranes, Morimoto and Suzuki are keenly aware that he also turned up on the other side of town at the same time as a rather dramatically posed corpse. The Chief is frantically making arrangements with the prefectural Science and Technology Division for the influx of reporters that are expected for one of the city's most important press conferences. He knows that it's a great chance to show off his Police Department, but his nerves become severely unsettled when a scandal concerning a famous unsolved case is uncovered. And as Morimoto and Suzuki use their superlative powers of logical deduction to identify the villains, the Chief launches his own secret plan that is guaranteed to delight the Police Department's judo champion.
